There are some 'more graphical' X alternatives too, but they are not
exactly widely used. Search freshmeat - there is at least one, picogui,
that looks like it could have been somewhat promising when it was
abandoned by its author.
No idea if it even compiles nowadays, especially on OpenBSD, though. And
I don't know how this thing talks to video cards. Theo seems to indicate
that working with video cards pretty much requires a good dose of
'evil'.
